Yesterday was my first day in Art History. There wasn't too much going on. Just introductions and stuff for the new people of Full Sail. It's supposed to be your first month at Full Sail, combined with English Composition, however, since I transferred from Game Art, I had it after a couple of months.
We were in Building 4 today. I was dreading it, because they have these tiny little desks on slick tile floors that don't fit your laptop completely. Those rooms made me so nervous because I always felt like my laptop would end up in a disaster....

Project 2: The Final
Hi everyone! It's been a while since I last made a post. I haven't received my grades back for the Jabberwocky. Today was the last day of class, and my final is finished. It's actually very odd. I've had a lot (and boy, do I mean a lot) of contempt for this project. I was never very happy for it. Probably because the Lab staff tried to kill the pre-production ideas I had when we first started. I had a friend who helped inspire...

Well, we got our grades back from the Animation Project. I got a 5/5, or in other words, 100%. Today we'll be showing off the digital paintings we did. We're expected to get the grades back from our first Practicum and the digital paintings next class, though nothing is guaranteed. Back to lecture, then. See you guys soon....

Mini Project 02: The Jabberwocky
For this mini project, we were to do a digital painting of a monster that you would probably see in a children's book. My rendition of a Jabberwocky (it could not be a dragon) was a little darker than most, however it was made appropriate: no gore or internal organs, though there are some implications. The process started with a simple sketch, scanned in and I basically used it as guidelines before fine tuning the...

We got our grades back today for the layout. The grading rubric did the grades on a scale of 0-10. I got a 9 for my layout, so that's an A. We were assigned our Mini 02 project. It's a digital painting of our version of a Jabberwocky. (I think that's how it's spelled.) I started the sketch. A lot of people said it reminded them of one of the Silent Hill monsters. I'll just upload a finished version in a few da...

Mini Project 01: GIF Animation
Today was a pretty busy day. I turned in my layout. I also received my final grade for the camera I did in Illustrator. I got a 95 A. I suspect the problems that kept me from getting a 100 were the metal effects on the ring. But still, a 95 is great. I'm happy with it. We also got the Midterm Practicum. The Practicums are basically the Photoshop "tests" they give us. This one we can take home, use our notes, help friends...

Project 1: The Layout
Now that the camera is finished, we were supposed to do a layout. One thing I will comment about in this post is the lack of communication between the course directors and the lab staff. Our teacher told us she wanted four thumbnails of our layouts. The lab staff required us to do seven different concepts, and then five layouts of the "chosen" one. I'm not complaining, I'm just pointing out a situation. I might be an exception,...

Project 1: The Camera
WOW. I'm a week into Advanced Computer Graphics, and let me say, it's been one heck of a ride, so far. Our first project is the Mechanical Object. Basically, they give us a list of images (alarm clocks, cameras, toy robots, etc. etc.) and we're expected to use that as reference and produce something that's photo real. Now, you'd think after learning some Photoshop last month, it would be easy, aaand it would be. If we were...
